I got 40 mpg reliably with my 5 speed Escort, filled up once a week, and thrashed it like there was no tomorrow. I called it the chick magnet, and sold it to my teacher for $350.

Yeah, over square.

if you flying to Australia, probably easier to test drive one from the dealer?

most things where manuals in the time of the Foxbody.

did you say something??

I wouldn’t want it, but I’ll say “NP!” for th efollowing reasons:

I started on a 95 Escort, currently have a 97 VW Jet ta (diesel, the horrors), both with manuals. I don’t really want something else since they both get me from A to B reliably, there’s next to nothing to hack, and it’s modern gen thief proof.

It’s relatively easy to learn on the spot with no instructor in a torquey old beast like that!

Batteries (of 16 Hellfire missles) not included.

Code Brown appears to be the order of the day…

I bet that is much easier to steal then a modern car. I lost my keys at the gym once and just used my string on my sweatshirt and a pocket knife to get in my truck and start it, cant do that on newer car.

Check forums and popular vendors for buyers guides for certain cars with more details for what to watch for between years. I.e. Slee off-road has good buyers guides for land cruisers

There is one very simple solution to this.
